We are not sure that there will be exactly 1000 steps, as there may be more. To learn, however, you can start at step 1 and make sure you master the steps in order. Soon, you will be a productive information modeler bringing business value to your customers at an unprecedented speed.
In this learning process, there could be more or fewer than 1000 steps. However, to learn, start from step 1 and make sure you understand each step before moving on. Soon, you'll become a proficient information modeler, delivering business value to your customers at an incredible and unprecedented speed.

The 1000 steps program is a learning package that has been developed to take the learner from the very beginning to the production of web applications in small, manageable steps. It has been designed to be more comprehensive and detailed. By the end of the package, the learner will have a basic understanding of the product and be able to produce a web application.
The 1000 Steps to MDriven is an educational package where we unravel the mysteries of the MDriven tools, step by step. Our mission? To take you from a novice to a proficient user, and beyond, all while keeping things engaging and easy to grasp.  
 
The package contains many steps and side tracks, and it is designed to make the learning process less daunting. It is documented in a series of baby steps that will be easy for learners to revisit and review information as needed. The goal of the 1000 steps is to make it easy for users to understand how the tool works, mystery. While the package may appear complex, it is presented in an easy-to-understand manner that will teach the user how to use M-driven effectively.
 
 
a new approach  to  an  introduction  to  M-driven,  a  learning  package, 1,000  steps to  M-driven.
start  from  the  very  beginning,  and not  explain everything  in  the  deepest  detail, just  moving  on  all the time,  trying  to  push  on  and learn  one  more  thing.  Because  at  some  point,  maybe  after  100  or  200  steps,  you  will  know  enough  of the handicraft  to actually start  to  talk  and  express  yourself  with  the tools.


And  I think  that  most of  our  other  videos  has  been very focused  on  a single function  and  sort  of  assume  that  you knew  the  other  functions. And so  that  has  made  it  hard  to find  a good  way  in  to the product.
We'll guide you through more than a hundred, maybe even two hundred, meticulously crafted steps until you're equipped to wield MDriven's capabilities effectively. Our purpose is to guide you through a series of small and unintimidating baby steps with clear instructions. You may not be a maestro when you meet your first client, but you'll know how to navigate the terrain and where to start your quest for solutions.  


But  thinking  ahead, there  will  be  quite  a  few  steps.  Because once  you have  gone  through  a  sort  of  happy  path  from  knowing  nothing  to actually  producing  web  applications, there's  lots  of  side  tracks  that one  can  talk  about, quite  some  time. And  we  probably should  do  that  as  well.  So  that  once  you meet your first  customer  client, you  might  not  be  fluent  in  everything.  But  at  least  you know  that  things  exist and where  to  start  looking  to  find  things.
Whether you want to dive deep into the tool or simply produce results that matter, you need to learn the ropes. Building information systems for real-world applications can be complex, but life itself is intricate. We're here to demystify MDriven, making it accessible for anyone eager to explore its potential. We show the ropes to anyone curious to find out fairly easily, ensuring you can revisit and refresh your knowledge whenever needed. Each step comes with a video tutorial, making it as natural as if we were right there with you.


And  I  would  say  you, more  than  others, have been trying  every  way  to teach. And  it's not easy.  And  I  guess  everyone  needs  it.  But  when we  talked and came  up  with this,  it's  like  we lack  the  ability  to teach  without  thinking. And  maybe you just  need  to  do  not get  the whole  theological  reasons for  modeling  and  just  get  to  it.  And  then  we thought  maybe  super  small  steps.  So  that's  why there  are  so  many.  Because  there are  very  tiny  steps.
We start with modeling and handling the tool, adding classes, and dragging on associations because when we have been in a classroom, it has been difficult for people to try the tool for the first time. Quite a few have managed to create an association to ''self'', encountering errors and struggling with how to delete them. This is why we invest extra effort into these first steps, ensuring you not only escape pitfalls but also grasp the mechanics, including the reasons why we separate the model as a repository with all the classes versus the diagrams that only show part of what is in the model.  


But  as soon as  I  saw  the  thousand  steps,  and  I saw  what the  source  steps were, I  thought thousand  baby  steps really. Very, very  small.  It's  just  what, you  know,  click  and  do  this,  click  and  do  that.  But  it  seems  like  we  are,  we  need  to  also,  it's  a  bit  actually  just  not  scary  way. 
Our goal is to help you cover vast ground while taking small, manageable steps. So, if you're ready to explore MDriven, take that first step with us!


But  I  mean,  some  things  might,  if  you  want  to  get  into  the  tool  all  the  way,  or  at  least  be  able  to  produce  something  that  gives  real  results,  and  you  need  to  learn  the  house  and  how  to  click. And  maybe  that  has  been  like,  let's  see  if  this  works. And  in  the  end,  we  can't  shy  away  from  building  information  systems  for  real  life  is  a  bit  complicated  because  real  life  is  complicated. And  then we need to  also  accept  that  it's  not  for  everyone.  But  the  ones  that has  the ability should  at  least  be  able  to  find  that  out  fairly  easy  how  to  do  it.  So  it  shouldn't  be  a  mystery  on  how  the  thing  works.

And  the great  thing  about  having  it  documented  in  baby  steps  is  that once  you're  on  your  merry  way  and  for  beyond  it,  you  might  still  want to  go  back  and  check  a  specific  thing  at  a  later  date.  And  all  the  steps  are  accompanied  by  a  video.  So  I  am  welcome  to  enter.  It's  me talking basically,  but  trying to  show  every  single  thing  we  do.  And  the way  I  produce  this  is  that  I  am  sort  of  write  the  steps  as  they  feel  natural  to  me.  But  as  I  do,  I  might  be  skimming  over  things  or  neglecting  to  explain  important things.  So  I'm very  interested  in  getting  some  kind  of  feedback  from  those  of  you  who  know  the tool,  but  still  check this  out  to  see  if  there's  things  that we  can  improve.  Not  necessarily  that we're  going to redo  a  lot  of  the  steps,  but  we  could  do add-ons  to  this,  like,  side  tracks,  to  go deeper into  things  that  might  be complicated.
Enjoy the experience!
And  then  also,  there's  always  a  challenge  what  the  path  should  be.  Now  we  started  with  modeling  and  just  handling  the  tool,  adding  clauses,  and  dragging  on  associations.  Why  we  do that is because when we  have  been  in  a  classroom  earlier,  that's not  really  an  extremely  simple  thing  for  people  trying  the  tool  for  the  first  time.  Quite  a  few  have  managed  to  create  an  association  to  self and not finding it  and  getting  a  lot of  errors  and not  understanding  how  to delete it.  So  that's  why we  put  some effort into those  first  steps  to  just being able to  get  out  of  trouble  and  also know  how the  mechanics  work  and  the  separation  of  the  model  as  a  repository  with all  the clauses  versus  the  diagrams  that  only show  part  of  what's  in  the  model.  So  now we  are at step 150  or  something like  that.  And I think it's  good  that  we're  already  running  a  web application  and  adding  or  changing  the  seeker  forms  to  do  some  more  complex  seeking  than  they  came  with  initially.  So  I'm  very  happy  that  we're  able  to,  even  though  we take extremely  small  steps,  we  cover  ground.  So  that's also the  main  objective  with  this.
